Chapters Sunset couldn't believe it. Here she was with The Pony Of Shadows. She had heard and read the stories, but never though that they were true. She simply thought that it was a story made up to scare little fillies and colts. Sunset was currently in her apartment, talking to the Shadow Pony. They shared a link between each other in order to make sure nothing happened to the other. Not that anything would happen, but then again, there are those fuckers who attacks someone else while they are asleep.
"So Sunset Shimmer, how did that pathetic princess pony get the idea about not trusting you? From my understanding of your story, she should be the one to believe you. Not some whores who backstabs another fellow student slash friends." Shadow Pony said, with clear anger in his voice. Sunset had told Shadow Pony about her whole tale up until the present time.
Sunset sighed a little. It was probably best to tell him about the incident. "Well, you see... "
After Sunset's friends left her like the cowards they are, Sunset tried reaching for her journal that she kept in her bag. All of a sudden, she felt a hand grab her, and saw that it was Applejack. She pulled Sunset's arm, and saw what Sunset tried to get. Her eyes traced the outline of the journal.
"What is this Shimmer?" Applejack asked, in a voice that screamed 'authority' and it made Sunset a little angry.
"Its a journal that i got from princess Celestia in order to speak with her. You know what i did to contact princess Twilight right?" Sunset asked, in a way to make her..... remember that day. Applejack looked at Sunset and nodded in understanding. She then, snatched the book out of Sunset's hand and walked away with it.
"Applejack! What are you doing!?" Sunset asked, in a panic. Applejack just looked at her for a small time, then said in a hateful voice.
"I got to make sure the princess makes sure she doesn't go for the likes of you. I'll rely a message for you if she decides to contact you." Applejack said, making Sunset nod a little. She wanted to scream at Applejack and snatch back the book, but it would have been useless. Applejack is somewhat stronger than her.
She didn't know how long she was in that hallway for, but she had stayed there practically for the whole day. Applejack had returned the message to Sunset, which was;
I'm disappointed in you Sunset. I thought that you had changed from your old ways, but its clear that i was completely wrong. I'm sorry Sunset but i will be closing the portal for Hearts Warming and will only open it when the celebration is over. You can come through the portal if you want after that, but don't expect me to be happy to see you. Goodbye. Applejack had then walked away, and made Sunset cry tears of sadness.
She then remembered what her friends had told her, while she pulled herself up. It felt like it was seconds ago that happened, when in reality it was a few hours ago. She went for her locker...
"And that is pretty much the story." Sunset said, having explained the whole situation to Shadow Pony, who was fuming with anger. He may be cold and heartless, but betrayal is something even he doesn't tolerate. "And i met the sirens who have been kind to me."
Shadow Pony nodded in understanding. "They are good friends. By the way, they wanted to thank you for destroying the necklaces. Apparently, they needed strife to survive with the necklaces, but they are free from that curse. You are probably curious on how i know, well, i can also read minds. Don't worry i haven't read your mind." Shadow Pony assured, but Sunset still looked at him skeptical. Shadow Pony couldn't help but grin a little. "Okay, i maybe read a tiny bit."
Sunset snorted at that, and Shadow Pony laughed. He was in his pony forms with wings and horn, making him a alicorn. He's not an official one, but he definitively is one. He and Sunset shared some stories with each other. Sunset had learnt quickly that Shadow Pony never mentioned his past on where he grew up, or where his parents were. 'Maybe he doesn't have any.' Sunset thought. She forgot that Shadow Pony could read minds, and didn't notice how he faltered a bit.
He had gone through some tough shit in his past. If she would have known, he would be shown fake sympathy. He then laughed a maniacal laugh. How he enjoyed toying with everything that comes to mind. He may have been sent to limbo, but he sure knew how to escape from it.
"Shadow Pony, how did you escape limbo? I heard theories on how you were 'banished' to limbo. If its true, how did you escape?" Sunset asked, suddenly and felt how Shadow Pony tensed up but didn't comment. At first, Sunset didn't think she'd get an answer so she tried to change the subject. "Sorry, wha-"
"Lucifer freed me." Shadow Pony said, cutting Sunset of. The firery haired girl looked at Shadow Pony as if he lost it. Shadow Pony sighed, and decided to elaborate. "Lucifer Morningstar is the fallen angel of God as you may know. He started a rebellion that failed, and he was sent to rule Hell slash Tartarus for all eternity. You see, for demons or demon-like creatures, he is seen as our own version of God. He has access to dimensions and limbo. Limbo is something both God and Lucifer share with each other. I was sent to limbo by the Pillars the first version of the element bearers. They sent me to limbo, and Lucifer saved me. You see, there is only one God and one Lucifer. Although, Lucifer seems to have grown quite soft. Kept talking about his son and grandchildren. I didn't even know he had any children."
Sunset was shocked. She knew that there was a Heaven and Hell, because in Equestria, it is a known fact that Faust created them. Although, the ponies did not know if the stories of Lucifer and archangels were true or not. They decided it was just a story some priest made up and left it at that. Here, hearing the story from Shadow Pony himself that Lucifer was indeed real, was shocker for her. She did expect some weird tale,but this was a lot more complicated than she originally thought.
"Well, that was an interesting explanation. Do you have anymore bombshells to drop?" Sunset asked, in a joking manner. Shadow Pony just looked at her with a raised brow. She just laughed a little nervous and decided to head to bed before it either became awkward or tense.
"Well, i'm heading to bed, goodnight!" Sunset said, and walked to her bedroom where she jumped into bed to get some sleep. The Shadow Pony was in deep thought. He really did wonder what was going on with those three sisters. He then widen his eyes a little but not much.
"I forgot to tell her that it was those idiots; Applebloom, Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo who were the fucking traitors." Shadow Pony said, to himself. "Eehh, i'll tell her in the morning."
"THEY DID WHAT!!!???" Sunset shouted at Shadow Pony who were looking at Sunset with an amused expression. He had just told her that it was the human CMC. Sunset was beyond furious, and was glaring at Shadow Pony who looked like he was watching a funny TV show.
"Why in the name of LUCIFER, didn't you tell me this yesterday?" Sunset asked, Shadow Pony who looked at Sunset with a shocked expression. She just said his majesties name without a care. Well, she technically isn't a 'official' demon so it won't count on her, but for actual demon, it is 'his majesties' or 'King' and then the name Lucifer.
"You are one brave soul for saying his majesties name out loud without saying King or his majesties first. I for one, am to terrified to say his first name." Shadow Pony said, to Sunset who just looked at him with accusing eyes. She didn't blame Shadow Pony for being shocked, since Shadow Pony is a demon that have to follow Lucifer laws. Well, the only laws to her understanding was don't defy King Lucifer and things like that.
"Yes, well, i think i'm 'brave' then. Now, answer me, why didn't you say this yesterday ?" Sunset asked, again with a hint of anger. Shadow Pony chuckled a little. This girls anger was larger than his, and he was a literal demon !
"There was a sense of awkwardness between us, and i had actually forgotten about it. Besides, i thought that you were gonna kill them immediately. Well, you might still do so, but it will be quite interesting if i do say so myself." Shadow Pony said, with sadistic glee. Sunset just gave a irritated sigh.
"Fine you get away now , but not again." Sunset said, making Shadow Pony nod her way. Sunset knew though, that Shadow Pony was right. She probably would kill them either way. She just didn't have the right plan to pull it of. Sunset put on her leather jacket, together with leather boots she used in her bully days with purple glitter lining. She smiled to herself, she was finally back. Shadow Pony looked at her with a... smirk? Sunset in all honesty couldn't tell.
"What are you smirking about?" Sunset asked, making Shadow Pony grin wickedly. He was sitting on the sofa with his forehoofs in front of him like a dog. Sunset looked around the small apartment. The floors were dirty and had some filth on them. Sunset sighed. She needed to find a better place to stay.
"Nothing if I'm honest, I just find it fascinating that you haven't tried attacking me. Most creatures would have done so by now. Then again, I can help you with your little revenge scheming. By the way, your three siren friends is interested in helping you out." Shadow Pony said, making Sunset turn to him confused. What was he talking about?
"Well, I can't do that now can I? You are made from ooze, and I will most likely slip through. Besides, you and I are one. What do you mean with 'helping me out?' What exactly?" Sunset asked, in complete confusion. Shadow Pony just looked at her with a smug look.
"Well, I saw that they had been following us ever since you and I became one. They followed you to your apartment. The purple siren, Aria, apparently knew that this was a shady area of town. I also heard them discussing about 'tey to make you live with them,' i for one am looking forward to see your interaction with them. What will you do with this knowledge?" Shadow Pony asked, making Sunset think.
It would be nice to have some company other than Shadow Pony. She didn't mind having him around, as she can perhaps learn about Equestria's unwritten history. Then again, she would feel like she is using him for knowledge. She had completely forgotten that Shadow Pony can read minds, and didn't see how Shadow Pony smiled a little. Not a friendly smile, but a wicked smile. One that no creature in their life would ever want to see. He hoped the firery haired girl found out what he did to her old 'friends.' Then again, she would probably be enraged with Shadow Pony.
"I guess I could live with them, but it is something I wouldn't bring up." Sunset said, making Shadow Pony nod in understanding. Sunset hated being a burden. That was something she simply couldn't tolerate. She had to do everything on her own, as she didn't like the burden feeling. Shadow Pony heard these thoughts and smiled a little. He was very much alike with Sunset. He didn't like to be a burden. Not that he has ever been one, since, he is ooze he can easily just heal himself and give himself a castle and money. He didn't have any problems with anything.
"Completely understandable, and I do expect them to ask you. Then again, maybe they are hoping you come to them. Although, we both know the latter won't happen, and I think they know this so they will, without a doubt, come to you and ask flat out." Shadow Pony said, making Sunset nod. Everything he had said was absolutely correct and it didn't surprise her one bit. He is a all-knowing creature.
"Well, I planned on going for a walk. Come along." Sunset said, making Shadow Pony look at her with disbelief. She didn't seriously just order him to do something? Sunset just gave a cocky grin to Shadow Pony who didn't know what to do.
"Okay..." Shadow Pony mumbled, getting up and walking towards Sunset, who looked at him amused. He didn't know how to react so he stayed quiet.
Sunset opened the door and walked out together with Shadow Pony who manifested onto Sunset. She locked the door and left. Shadow Pony shot a dark magical spell to make sure that no one broke in. Only those Sunset trusted could come inside without being cursed by his spell.
The sidewalk Sunset was walking on was filled with snow, but not unbearable snow. Sunset saw several people walking by, and shopping for their loved ones. Sunset sighed and continued walking. The stores and street lamps were decorated with Christmas decorations. There were red and green everywhere. The children was having a snowball war in the park that Sunset walked by, and saw several faces from CHS, but had put her hood up. She continued walking and looking around.
She decided to walk back to her apartment, and was lost in her thoughts. She was thinking about her past. How she had slaughtered mares and colts for defying her. Sunset stopped in the middle of the sidewalk she was on. There were some apartments buildings nearby, and some people on and about. Sunset was frozen. Those were not her memories! Did Shadow Pony do all of that? Murder mares and colts? Sure, he is violent, but that was uncalled for even for her.
Sunset started walking again, and she noticed how Shadow Pony was comforting her with his coldness on her skin that was currently invisible so people didn't ask any funny questions. Sunset continued walking down the sidewalk completely lost in thought.
She then felt her anger flared up, and she gave anyone who walked by, an icy stare that sent shivers down the pedestrians spines. Sunset hadn't felt this type of anger before. It was funny... it sort of, reminded her of hatred. She had that feeling before, and it was not good at all. Then again, it was quite sudden. Maybe it was Shadow Pony's? Sunset had no idea, but she sincerely hoped that she would get some answers out of him.
The Dazzlings were in their mansion getting ready to confront Sunset about her living standards. They wanted to thank her in some sort of way, and decided that inviting her to live with them would be a big thank you. Especially considering where they saw her enter. Aria knew it was a bad area to live in, so they made up a plan to bring her with them. They weren't gonna take no for an answer.
Their mansion was quite big, and had several rooms. They had a room ready for Sunset when she came. They did wonder if she wanted to share a room, but had decided to ask when she came to them. Sonata had been more than willing to share a room with the firery haired girl. They had calmed Sonata down and said that they were gonna hear what Sunset has to say about it.
They were in their living room talking to each other, while, Sonata was trying to get ahold of Sunset. It was found to be difficult, as Sunset doesn't seem to reply back. Aria was quite curious what was keeping Sunset from answering while Adagio was thinking about every single scenario.
"She just won't pick up! What shall we do!?" Sonata asked, frustrated. They looked at their sister in surprise. She barely flips out like that. Aria was sitting on a white couch and jumped a few seats away from the frustrated girl. Adagio was trying to read Sonata, which is absolutely impossible. She doesn't have the same type of reactions humans and other creatures have, its like she blocks away her reactions.
"We'll take her to live with us either way. Calm down Sonata, I know you want to get a hold of her, but it might be better if we 'catch' her in her apartment which will give us a reason to get her out of there." Adagio said, making Aria nod in understanding. Sonata looked conflicted. She did like the plan, but she didn't know if Sun-shim would appreciate the fact that they just show up and take her away. Then again, perhaps she doesn't even wanna be there.
"Okay, shall we go then?" Sonata asked, making the other two smile at her. They nodded and walked out of the mansion and headed for their black BMW. They were wearing the clothes they wore when they went to CHS.
Adagio was driving, and was looking ahead on the road. Aria was sitting beside her, watching the different houses pass by. Sonata was worried about Sunset and didn't stop to think about her. The roads were mostly empty and they didn't run into any traffic. They soon started recognising the buildings and people that were walking around. They then found the apartment block that Sunset lived in. They parked the car on the street and got out. They started walking up a flight of stairs and knocked on the door that was Sunset's door. She had the number 666.
"They are here to collect you now. The sirens that is." Shadow Pony said, making Sunset get out of the couch and waiting by the door to open it.
She heard a knocking on the door and put on a friendly smile. "Hello, what do I owe you this pleasure?" Sunset asked, making Adagio frown a little. She saw something in Sunset's eyes that suggested that she already knew that this would happen. Then again, she seemed to have changed a lot since the battle of the bands. She seemed more observant then she used to be.
"Sunset, we know where you live, and I know for a fact that this is a bad area to live in. We want to take you in, have you live with us." Adagio said, with a voice that said 'no protesting.' Sunset grinned a little. She did expect this to come eventually, but she didn't think that they would be serious.
"But i am quite happy here. You sure i can't stay?" Sunset asked, grinning widely. It made Adagio look at Sunset questionably. 'Sunset, what have you been doing?' Adagio asked, herself in her mind. Sunset continued to grin. She knew that her new friends might be concerned for her, but she was in all honesty, fine. She had Shadow Pony to back her up if something was wrong.
"Sunset, we simply can't let live here. Who knows what will endanger you? What if one of those Wondercolts finds out where you live?" Aria said, trying to reason with Sunset who looked as if she was playing a funny video game. Sunset was enjoying herself a bit much.
"That's what makes it fun though, i can see if any of those FUCKING cowards come by." Sunset shouted out the swear word with such malice Adagio thought she had lost her fotting. Sunset then put up a friendly smile to them as if nothing happened. Aria didn't know what to feel, but was worried for Sunset.
"Sun-shim, i won't allow you to stay in these areas. They are far to dangerous, and i don't want to see you hurt." Sonata said, making Sunset's grin falter a bit. This didn't go unnoticed by either of the sirens, but Sunset quickly put up her grin again. She walked forward and to their surprise, hugged Sonata.
"If that is your wish, then i will come." Sunset said, making the three sirens look at her surprised. They expected her to be very against the idea, but apparently not. Sunset herself was still hugging Sonata with longing in her eyes, and the three noticed. Sunset shook her head and released Sonata. She looked at the three and smiled a little. "Come on in." Sunset motioned for them to come in.
When they did, Sunset went to her room to pack her things. The sirens looked around, and saw the dump she had been living in. Adagio and Aria were quite amazed on how she even managed to survive living in a place like this. Sonata was even more worried than before, and looked around. 'How has she managed to live in a place like this?' Sonata asked, herself in her mind.
Sunset was packing her small essentials and important possessions. Not that she had many, but she still wanted it nonetheless. Shadow Pony hadn't said anything since the Dazzlings arrived, but he did 'peek' his head out from time to time. "Do you know why they are so concerned for you?" Shadow Pony suddenly asked, making Sunset jump a little, but soon calmed down.
"No, I have no idea. Then again, I hardly care on why they are concerned. I'm not gonna use them, but, I will not be friends with them." Sunset said, not realising that the three girls had overheard her. Shadow Pony though, knew they were listening in. He thought that Sunset was gonna say something good, but apparently not. There is a section of mind reading Shadow Pony simply couldn't access, no matter how hard he tried. The only one's that can do it is Lucifer and Faust. He didn't really feel any emotion for what those three girls were doing, but he did feel something . Sunset knew though, that she was lying to herself. They are her friends.
"Alright then." Shadow Pony said, making Sunset happy. She walked out of her room and saw the Dazzlings waiting there. They... looked at Sunset with real curiosity. They heard that she was speaking to someone, but they didn't understand what the other person was saying. Sonata was unsure on how to feel about the situation. The other Dazzlings were trying to read Sunset, but to no avail. It was like she was a book without the words on the pages. She gave them a friendly smile no one of them could determine whether it was real or fake.
"I have my things, shall we go? Unless if you have changed your mind..." Sunset said, sounding a tad bit hopeful. The Dazzlings shook their heads, and Sunset groaned on the inside. She didn't hate them, or mind them, but she didn't at the same time want anything to do with them. "Lead the way." Sunset then stopped, she couldn't determine her own feelings. Perhaps it was the Shadow Pony's part and that was whynshe couldn't make up her mind at all. She shook it of and continued.
They did so, and they walked in silence until they saw an black BMW, and the Dazzlings got inside and so did Sunset. She sat together with Sonata, and they didn't say anything. Sunset was having a conversation with Shadow Pony in her mind. "I am telling you Shimmer, that I can't read a hundred procent correctly on what they are thinking. Yes, I can read minds, but there are certain things that I can't simply read. Look, I can't do certain things because of my King alright? He punishes those who doesn't follow his laws. One of them are being to not read minds of 'mundanes' and i really don't know why. No matter dimenson, he'll always know. The same goes for God or Faust as ponies and other equines says." Shadow Pony half-ranted. Sunset had asked if he could read their minds, and give her information.
"Fine then, but how will I know what they are thinking and doing? I kind of want to know what they are planning to do with me. I don't want to end up in the most fucked up situation, and get back stabbed... again." Sunset said, feeling her anger start to return. She wasn't aware that the other equines in the car could feel her anger. They were quite frightened, including Aria who didn't really care about anyone being angry, but this type of anger. This was different, this wasn't normal .
"Bacon girl... Sunset are you okay?" Aria asked, hoping to get a straight answer out of Sunset. She didn't mean to say bacon girl, but it just came out. Sunset turned to her, and looked at her through the rear view mirror that her eyes quickly flashed pitch black, and back to her normal eye colour. Adagio noticed this, and feel red flags come to her mind.
"Yes, I'm okay. Why do you ask?" Sunset asked, trying to sound pleasant, but her voice suggested that she was anything but pleasant. They couldn't make out on what it was, but they would hopefully figure it out.
"Just trying to start a conversation." Aria said, quickly not trying to sound rude. Sunset rolled her eyes that didn't go unnoticed by the three sirens. Adagio thought that it would be best that she explained to Sunset why they wanted an apartment, considering where they lived.
"Sunset, we live quite richly, and its probably best if I explained why we-" Adagio started, but was silenced by the raise of Sunset's hand. This surprised, the other two sisters. No one had been able to silence her so casually. Then again, it was something about Sunset that gave of, that you didn't want to upset her.
"Like I have said a few times before, I hardly care why you want the apartment. I really don't care. So save whatever explanation you have for someone that actually cares." Sunset said, making Adagio shut her mouth completely. What they wished for, was to know why she was so cold to them. They expected her to be curious, but it was clear to them that she really didn't care, and clearly meant what she said.
Sunset then started feeling a little guilty. Perhaps they felt like they should explain, and Sunset just shut them down, like it was nothing. She facepalmed herself making the three sirens look at her. "Sorry Dazzle, i shouldn't have said that. Please, continue. I promise not to interrupt." Sunset said, surprising the sisters. Couldn't she make up her mind? Adagio on the other hand was grateful.
"Thank you, well, we wanted a apartment because we wanted a second place to live. You see, sometimes we like to switch places, and one of the things we like switching is where we live. We have lived for over a thousand years in this world. We had another apartment that we sold, and that was in Los Angeles. We started looking for another apartment, and that is when we saw your name. We thought that it was perhaps this worlds you, by how you answered, but I soon realized that you already knew who it was. Now, that could be explained away as she knew this worlds us, but you said a few things that made me realize that it was you The one who defeated us. We aren't angry by the way. You freed us from a curse. Anyways, we called, and you know the rest. We are here now, and well that was the explanation." Adagio said, feeling happy that Sunset allowed her to get that out of her system.
Sunset had payed attention the whole time, though, it probably didn't look like she did it. She had been looking out the window, and didn't look like she had been listening. But she had, she had heard every single word being spoken by Adagio. Adagio noticed that Sunset was looking out of the window, and she frownd a little. Had she not listened to her at all?
"A very interesting tale, and yes I did pay attention to every single word." Sunset said, surprising the three sirens. She had really payed attention? If she had, then they were wrong to assume something else...
All of a sudden, they felt an impact on the right side of the car. They spun, and Shadow Pony looked at who did it. "Gilda." Shadow Pony said, making Sunset scowl. She got out of the car. Gilda did the same, but she hadn't noticed that Sunset had been in the vehicle.
"O My God! Are you okay in there?! Look, I'm so sorry! I have..." Gilda trailed of when she saw that it was Sunset who stood in front of the damaged car. Gilda felt the air become colder and colder. Her black leather jacket didn't do much. Even her gloves didn't seem to do much.
"You listen here motherfucker, you better have insurance or there will be fucking blood spill." Sunset said, in a voice that left no room for argument. Gilda was standing there in shock. Did Sunset Shimmer just say a swear word? 'Okay, what is going on?' Gilda asked, herself in her mind. Sunset may be Anon-A-Miss, but the Sunset she knew, never ever swore.
"Y-yes, I'll get it for you." Gilda said, rushing to her pickup truck. She looked for the insurance papers everywhere, and found them. She got out of her vehicle and gave them shakily to Sunset, as she felt the wind become colder and colder.
"Also, I have a surprise for you." Sunset said, and pulled out her pistol and shot Gilda between the eyes. The only look Gilda gave was one of absolute shock. Sunset had gotten her gun, ammunition and drugs while she had been asleep, but Shadow Pony had corrupted the person and taken the delivery Sunset had ordered. The drugs were something Sunset looked forward to in selling wise. The Dazzlings looked at Sunset in shock. She had just killed someone! And she didn't look like she even cared!
"Here," Sunset said, handing over the insurance papers to Adagio, who looked quite... scared. She took the insurance papers and gave a thankful nod. "Sorry you had to witness that. Well, one less person to give a shit about."
Aria would have normally agreed with this kind of thing, but with how Sunset was saying it, it sounded like she had planned or even hoped like something like this would even happen. 'Perhaps she was looking for an excuse.' Aria though, to herself. She sincerely hoped that it wasn't the case.
"Come on, let's get out of this shit hole. I know an mechanic. A fucking idiot if you ask me, but he knows how to build cars." Sunset said, making the three nod.
Adagio took the wheel again, and started driving of to the mechanic that Sunset had told them about. What Sunset didn't realize, was that three freshman students had witnessed the whole thing, and was terrified of what would happen when she found out it was them.
Author's Note
Hello everypony!
I want to apologize for the long delay. I have been working on this chapter for quite a while. I have probably re-writen this chapter like five or six times. I'm not a hundred procent think happy with it, but I would like to hear your thoughts and opinions.
The days had become a lot more intense. The Dazzlins were quite frightened by Sunset's lack of care on what she had done a few days ago. She had just killed Gilda as if it was planned out and everything. She hadn't even shown remorse for doing so. Sonata seemed to be the only one to actually be able to calm down Sunset when she has a fit of rage.
She was currently in her room that she shared with Sonata, and was writing in a ancient demonic language in her mundane journal. Shadow Pony had been talking about the best course of action to take when it came to revenge. Sunset though, was making plans of her own. She had planned on going to the dark Web and hire a hacker to find out the identities of Anon-A-Miss.
Then, whoever it was, was gonna get gunned down. Drive-by style. Sunset chuckled at her own thoughts and closed the journal after she finished writing. She had gone to a website called Silk road to sell her drugs on there. She was planning on selling it for two hundred dollars and work her way up like that. She went on the website and saw that there was five bidders.
The last one even had a message. On the message read; "I know for a fact that it's a little low. I guess that your a rookie then? Well, I'll buy it for ten thousand. Why? Because your most likely new to the game. Second; i have money. Send me a message, and you can setup your meeting place." It was an anonymous messenger, so she couldn't see who sent it. She clicked on the profile, and sent a quick message to him or her, and setup a meeting point which was in the Sugarcube Corner ally.
She was wearing nothing, but Shadow Pony manifested on her lower and upper body so it looked like she was wearing black themed clothing. She didn't feel naked either, she felt more free than anything. She walked out of her room just in time when she heard; "Sun-Shim dinner!" Sonata yelled out so Sunset would hear. Sunset chuckled, and walked into the dinning room where Aria and Adagio were sitting. They put on genuine smiles for their friend.
"Hello Sunset! What have you been doing today?" Adagio asked, trying to see if Sunset have calmed down a little since the killing of Gilda. Sunset gave her a knowing Smirk and just chuckled.
"I have been planning. That is all really." Sunset said, making Adagio inwardly groan. She couldn't help Sunset if she didn't say what was wrong. It was as if she was possessed...
Aria turned on the TV and saw that it was on the news. Sunset grinned when she heard what the report was about. "The police still haven't found the killer of sixteen year old; Gilda Griffin. A few days ago, there was a report that there was an apparent car crash, and a gun shot not so long after. No one has been able to come forward with evidence. The police is urging anyone with information about the killer or killers to come forward." Sonata walked into the room with a all four plates.
"Your steak is extra bloody Sun-Shim. Just for you." Sonata said, looking at Sunset with love in her eyes. Sunset smiled and to everyone's surprise. Kissed her. On the lips. Sonata's eyes widened. Adagio and Aria's eyes became as big as saucers. What was Sunset doing? Sure, they didn't mind what was happening, but it was sort of out of nowhere.
"Thank you love, I will most certainly enjoy it!" Sunset said, making Sonata get pulled out of her thoughts. She kissed back, after giving her sisters their plates and herself. She started to have a full out make-out session. Aria and Adagio was watching in amusement. Sonata then realized what she was doing and stopped for a second.
Adagio pouted. "Don't stop for us dear. You can continue." Adagio said, making Aria chuckle. Sonata became red faced, and tried to glare at Adagio who was simply smirking knowingly at her. Sunset made Sonata face her, and she was the one who became forceful on her.
They kissed and made sure their watchers had the full view. Adagio was enjoying herself immensely, and didn't mind the scene unfold in front of her. Aria was getting horny by watching the two, and decided to help herself. She started to finger herself, and she felt herself become wet from anticipation. Adagio wasn't far of herself, she did want to join them, but she thought it would be rude to intervene.
Sunset and Sonata were getting very heated into their passion, and couldn't stop themselves. They were getting ready to get into the real deal, when Sunset's phone buzzed. Sunset looked at it, and saw that it was the anonymous person from Silkroad. Sunset sighed, and stepped away from Sonata.
"I'm sorry luv, it seems like I have to get going." Sunset said, groaning in irritation. She'd rather continue where it was going, but fate had other plans. Sonata looked sad, but did looked sexually irritated by the interruption.
"And where are you going miss Shimmer?" Sonata asked, in a childish voice that sounded like an attempt to sound like an adult. Sunset smiled at her gently. She did feel horrible to just leave her special someone there sexually frustrated. But, it had to be done if she were to try to earn money.
She got out of the dinning room and used some ooze to call forward her objects that she needs. What she didn't realize; was that Adagio had seen it, and widened her eyes. Adagio had an idea what was possibly going on with Sunset, and she needed help from her sisters to potentially help her.
It was cold on the streets of Canterlot. There were a few cars driving by, that made noises because of the snow. Sunset was walking at a quick pace to make sure she gets to the location on time. In all honesty, she didn't want her buyers to wait. The walk was long, but fun. She had her gun in her right arm that was covered with ooze so no one could see it.
She started seeing the Sugarcube Corner building coming, up and Shadow Pony gave her a ooze bandana of sorts. Sunset felt her body become more muscular, and she walked into the ally. She felt like she was the one with the power.
When she was in the middle of the ally in the open section, she froze when she saw that it was the Diamond Dogs. They were waiting and looked up when they heard her footsteps. Their names are; Rover, Fido, and Spot respectively.
There was a change of plans. Sunset was not selling her drugs. She walked up to them, and said in her normal voice; "I was never Anon-A-Miss." And she quickly made her gun appear and she killed the three of them. The loud bangs could be heard, and she could hear screaming. She heard people running towards the location, and she decided it was time to get out of the area. She ran away as fast as possible, which was pretty fast, as Shadow Pony gave her wings. He also made her invisible so she wouldn't be seen.
The night was young, so she wanted to do something big instead. She was in all honesty to angry to simply go back, have sex, and sleep. No, she had to do something that would make her smile. She started thinking about the guns she had seen on the Black Market, and Shadow Pony could hear those thoughts. He chuckled a little, if she wanted to create gang wars, then he was all for it.
"I can hear what you are thinking. Do you want me to create it for you through ooze? It will still kill of course. It will be instantly." Shadow Pony said, making Sunset think for a minute. She would be saving time and money if Shadow Pony did it.
"Yes, that would be great. All I need now is a car or van." Sunset said, as she looked down bellow and saw a car that was black. The car itself had limousine windows and race tires. Must have been a sports car. Sunset flew down, and noticed how it was close to Sweet Apple Acres. Sunset smashed in the window and shut up the alarm with Shadow Pony's help. Sunset then managed to turn on the car through the dark magic Shadow Pony uses, and she drove of.
She noticed three young girls walking. She smiled. They would be a very easy target. She wanted the people of Canterlot to feel fear of the night. It was her city now, and they would have to learn it the hard way. Shadow Pony started driving the car and Sunset loaded up the weapon created by Shadow Pony. She rolled down the window, and fired at the three girls. She heard them yell in shock and fear, and they fell down to the side walk. Sunset laughed a evil laugh, and got back inside of the car and continued driving, and this time, like a proper street racer.
Sunset finally reached the mansion, and she walked inside. Her girlfriend and friends were watching TV. They were currently watching the news. They all looked at Sunset and back to the screen.
"Recently, there was a shooting near Sweet Apple Acres. The police officers that arrived at the scene where shocked when they saw three young girls be gunned down. Luckily, they are alive, but they are now trying to figure out who committed this horrible act of violence. The police is urging anyone with information to give a testament."
Adagio turned off the TV and looked at Sunset. Aria and Sonata did the same. They were worried about Sunset. She is gone for a few hours, and this happens? Something was up, especially since Sunset is acting out of character.
"Sunset, where were you when that happened?" Adagio asked, like a mother trying to get information out of their child. Sunset rolled her eyes and chuckled.
"I was in the allyway of Sugarcube Corner. I'm surprised that they didn't bring up about what happened there. Apparently, three CHS students were killed in that ally. Luckily, I was there before that happened." Sunset said, making Adagio look at her unimpressed.
"Or, you were there yourself when it happened, because you where the one who did it." Adagio said, making Sunset look at Adagio with eyes that screamed 'back of.' Adagio wasn't having it though. "We are concerned for you Sunset, you walk out of that door and we don't know whether or not you will come back. We want to help you but you won't let us in! Do you want help Sunset? If you do, than stay here with us and if you want to go out late at night then at least one of us should be with you. If you don't want help, then perhaps you should be on your own."
When Adagio finished the last sentence, she immediately regretted it. Sunset didn't look angry though, she looked quite pleased, as if she had just proven something. "Okay Dazzle, if that is what you want, then I'll happily leave." Sunset said, sounding happy.
Sunset turned to walk out the door, but stopped for ten seconds, then continued out the door. Aria and Sonata looked at Adagio with confusion. Sonata was understandably upset, and went to her room. Aria was simply surprised by it and looked at her questionably. "I-i didn't mean to say that..." Adagio said, sounding defeated. Aria simply nodded to her.
"There is more to it isn't there? You feel a connection like Sonata does." Aria said, it wasn't a question. It was a statement. Adagio simply nodded in confirmation. "I feel it to. I have felt it ever since we first saw her when she was listening to Swedish gangster rap. I still don't understand how it could have gone this bad. Sure, you can become hateful, but that should take a few days maybe a few weeks to become hatred. But Sunset, Sunset seems to have resorted immediately to hatred. Like she is possessed."
"She is possessed. I saw something black come out of her. Kind of reminded me of The Pony Of Shadows. At least from the tales we heard from when we were kids." Adagio said, surprising Aria. No, Aria wasn't surprised, she was like an old lady that had just heard the younger generation say a swear word.
"The Pony Of Shadows? The Pony Of Shadows?!" Aria asked, making Adagio nod. It was gonna be Hell when they woke up in the morning. Especially for the CMC who were gunned down by Sunset.
Author's Note
Here it is guys!
I was lucky that I got it out today. I didn't think I'd get this chapter out at all. Then again, I was lucky. Hope you enjoyed!
In the Canterlot hospital, were three girls by the name of; Applebloom, Seetie Belle, and Scootaloo. They had been shot in a drive-by, and they had been seriously injured by the bullets. Although, they had heard the doctors say that they had never seen any bullets do what had happened to them before.
They were in the same room, and they had gotten word by one of the doctors that their families were coming to visit them. They were obviously a little excited, but they had all agreed to tell them the truth. That they were Anon-A-Miss all along. They knew it would be a very long and hard discussion, and they knew it had to be done. They nearly died, and knew that it would only be a matter of time before Sunset finds out its them, and perhaps she'll go after them. They were in all honesty quite frightened with the lack of emotion she showed when she killed Gilda. It was also all over the news. When they had woken up, they had watched the news and seen that Sunset was wanted for the murder of Gilda. Or, rather they knew Sunset was wanted, while the police was looking for Gilda's killer.
In the room they were in, was large white walls and floor, with two large windows that they could look out of. They had curtains around the beds if they wanted or needed some privacy. They were currently in their own line of thoughts. They knew that they would have to face the music eventually, but they didn't know if they were ready. They were in all honesty, to afraid to say anything. But, they knew it was better to tell the truth then to hide it. Applebloom's bed was decorated with flowers from some other friends and relatives that had visited her when she had been in coma. The bedsheets were green, and it suited quite well with the flowers that were on the bed.
Applebloom was in a hospital gown, and she pulled it up to see the three gunshot wounds she got from the gangster. She had no idea who it could possibly be, or if it was Sunset. Then again, they don't exactly know if Sunset even owns a vehicle. She shouldn't be so quick to assume either. There was a sudden knock on the door, and a nurse Red Heart poked her head inside. "Miss Bloom, Belle, and Scootaloo. Your family members are here, are you ready to meet them?" Nurse Red Heart asked, making them think. In reality they weren't ready at all, but what choice did they exactly have? Applebloom was the one who took the lead on this one.
"Yes nurse Red Heart. You can send them in." Applebloom said, making nurse Read Heart open the door wide to reveal their family members. Applejack, Rarity, Rainbow Dash, Big Mac, and Granny Smith came through. They went to their respective family member, and hugged them for dear life carefully. The CMC felt happy, but they also felt like they didn't deserve it either. They all had tears in their eyes, and looked at each other.
"How are you feeling?" Rarity asked, the three. Rarity wasn't wearing any maskara or anything like that on her face. Her hair though, was the same. Sweetie Belle shrugged a little. She knew what was coming, she just had to hold out a little longer.
"Fine I guess, although I must say; I thought I was gonna die." Sweetie Belle said, making everyone in the room nod at her. They understood that they must have felt that way. They themselves had feared that they would lose them. Applebloom looked at Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo, who noticed that she was looking at them. They nodded towards her. It was better to get it over with.
"Everyone, we got something to say." Applebloom said, catching everyone's attention easily. They turned towards her and looked at her waiting for ther to continue. "Now, before I continue. I don't want any interruptions at all. No matter how much you want to, do not do it. You need to hear it from our perspective." Applebloom looked at everyone in the room with a stern gaze. The members kind of shuddered when they saw the gaze. They nodded towards her in understanding. "We are Anon-A-Miss. Yes, I said it. We are Anon-A-Miss, and we are not proud of it at all. I was the one who created it because I was jealous that Applejack spent all of her time with Sunset Shimmer. I created the page and put out the first post. Sweetie Belle then opened up Sunset's phone that had been unlocked since the Fall Formal. She transferred the pictures over to her phone and posted it online on Mystable. Scootaloo was the person who posted the pictures of Rainbow Dash's grade, and we started to receive other information on other people at school. This continued for several days and we didn't know when to quit. And that is the tale of Anon-A-Miss. You can shout at us now if you want to."
The room became dead silent. Applejack, Rarity, and Riainbow Dash felt a piece of their soul literally leave their body. They sincerely hoped it wasn't true, but looking at Applebloom's said it all. They had done it, and the friends of Sunset Shimmer hadn't believed her. Applejack could jump of a cliff and not feel anything. She realized what she had done, she would never be able to forgive herself. Princess Twilight Sparkle... would not be happy about hearing this. Rarity was expecting something, but not that. The things she had said to Sunset... she would never be able to forgive herself. Rainbow Dash had an unreadable expression. She had absolutely no idea what to say or do, as she simply stod there letting the information sink in.
"We... we messed up." Applejack managed to say say. The other two teenage girls simply nodded in agreement. The other people in the room, looked at them surprised. Big Mac and Granny Smith looked at them with mild interest. What were they talking about? Well, if the CMC said it right here in the hospital then they should say it here right?
"Applejack, what are you talking about?" Big Mac asked, looking at his sister with suspicion. He didn't want to believe what his sister had potentially done, but if she had done it, then he had no idea what he'd do. Applejack simply looked down towards the ground and didn't look up for a very long time.
"We betrayed her. Sunset i mean." Applejack finally answered. Big Mac and Granny Smith looked at Applejack for a very long time, hoping that she had said a horrible joke. It never came...
"Wait! You betrayed the firery haired girl that has worked her butt of to redeem herself, and you betrayed her!?" Granny Smith asked, angrily. Everyone in the room except Big Mac was terrified. He had expected this sort of anger from Granny Smith, and quite frankly, he had hoped she would. "When did you betray her?"
"A-after the pictures was released on Mystable. W-we thought that she had done it. But, now when Applebloom says that her phone was easily accessible, we realize that it could also have been someone else." Applejack explained, fearfully to Granny Smith who looked like she would explode a blood vessel.
"I'm extremely disappointed in you Applejack. Your mother and father would be very angry with you and are probably rolling in their graves because of the disappointment." Granny Smith said, coldly towards Applejack who let several tears fall. Big Mac simply shook his head in anger and disappointment. He expected better from his sister. Then again, everyone makes mistakes, but from her tone it sounds like she has either done something big or said something big to sound regretful. Maybe both.
"What exactly did you do Applejack?" Big Mac asked, looking into his sisters eyes who looked depressed. She hid her face behind her cowboy hat, but Granny Smith took it forcefully and threw it against the glass window.
"I took her journal that she writes to princess Twilight Sparkle, and wrote to Twilight that Sunset had gone back to her old ways." Applejack heard a gasp from Rarity who looked horrified by what Applejack had done. Rainbow Dash still had an unreadable expression. She wasn't gonna say it was low for Applejack as she knew she would have done the exact same thing. Big Mac's jaw dropped to the floor including Granny Smith's. They knew that Applejack could do some very questionable things when angry, but that was unexpected. Sweetie Belle, Scootaloo, and Applebloom looked at the commotion with tears in their eyes. They caused all of this, and now, Sunset was out there somewhere.
"Applejack, you better be saying a terrible joke or I swear to you, you will be disowned from the Apple family." Granny Smith said, making Applejack, Applebloom, and Big Mac's eyes widen in shock. They knew that unpleasant things would happen and be said, but that was something they didn't expect. Applejack was pale. Unhealthily pale, she did not expect that from Granny Smith. She simply looked down to the floor. She didn't know what to say, as there was nothing she could possibly say to make it better.
The room was silent and filled with tension. They all looked at each other and could see fire in Granny Smith's eyes. Applejack, Rarity, and Rainbow Dash looked down towards the ground and felt their tears come out. They had pushed away a friend that was in need that had told the truth. What were they gonna do now?
Sunset was inside of a store preparing for a robbery. Luckily, Shadow Pony had blocked the cameras of seeing her face. The cashier was looking at his phone, while Sunset loaded her weapon quietly. The store was relatively small, and oddly cozy. The walls were painted in red, and the floor was wet from cleaning. There were shelves from different items in stock.
The ceiling was decorated with different snowflakes which probably was meant to bring the Christmas spirit into everyone's hearts. Sunset rolled her eyes. She didn't understand why they bothered. She certainly wouldn't waste her time like that.
Shadow Pony then consumed her body, and made her eyes glow red. She pulled out a sawed of shotgun, and rushed up to the counter. The guy who was still looking at his phone, looked up and froze. What he was seeing, was a creature of sorts that was completely covered in black with red glowing eyes. It looked pretty frightening.
"Get the money in the bag right now." Sunset said, making the guy get a bag and open the register. Sunset looked at the guy with mild interest. She simply wanted the money and nothing else, but perhaps she could kill him and fuck his corpse... Sunset took away those thoughts. She was getting those type of thoughts lately. She didn't think these thoughts until Shadow Pony came...
Sunset suddenly shot into the roof feeling anger flare up inside of her. She was in all honesty tired of waiting, as she aimed it at the guy who was rushing it. He was so terrified of being simply shot at, that he didn't notice when Sunset lowered her weapon and placed her hand against her head sensing an headache coming along. "Are you almost done? I'm kind of in a hurry." Sunset said, making the guy nod very quickly.
The guy continued to load the bag with money, while Sunset was aiming at him and feeling anger rise and subside. She was unsure of why she was feeling anger like that. It was most likely Shaodw Pony who was angry over something, but she wasn't interested unless it concerned her. The guy then gave the money bag to Sunset, being wary of her weapon. Sunset took the bag greedily and used her Shadow Pony speed to rush it out of there.
She was running away from the store, and felt the bag in her arms become more heavy. She didn't know why that was, until she looked down and saw a metal box. She grew confused. She kept running through the crowd of different people walking by, and occasionally hit someone just for the fun of it. She reached the point she wanted to reach.
The building she was inside of was an old building that was left unfinished. Or well, it is on hiatus, but the building has never been finished. She took out the metal box and looked around it. There was something that was making her want to open it. She looked around, and only saw filth, and a few pillars keeping the place in one piece. She could feel Shadow Pony growing in anticipation.
"Do you need help in opening it?" Shadow Pony asked, making Sunset think for a while. She didn't exactly have a key to open the box, so it was probably for the best.
"Yes, you are the one that can open it without any problems, so go ahead." Sunset said, making Shadow Pony jump right into it. He used his ooze to unlock all of the locks of the box that was rectangular. Sunset was waiting for him to open it, and kept looking around to make sure that there weren't any uninvited guests. Luckily, there weren't, but she still kept a look out just in case.
The stone floor had dirt and filth, but that didn't bother Sunset as she lay down and stared at Shadow Pony's ooze do the work. The ooze had a sense of calming, as Sunset continued to stare at it work to get the box to open. Finally, there was a *Click* and the box opened. What she saw inside made her cackle.
Inside was a heart that was black. Not red, literally black. It looked like it had been corrupted or something, as it was her first time ever seeing a black heart. Shadow Pony studied it for a while, and cackled himself. He knew who's heart it was, and it would be interesting to see if Shimmer was willing to take in the heart inside of her.
"That is one corrupted heart. Interested in taking it inside of you?" Shadow Pony asked, making Sunset cackle. She was indeed interested in trying out the heart. She didn't want to feel sorrow or anything like that. If the heart really was corrupt, then she was very interested in it and to never feel guilt or betrayal. All she wanted to feel was hatred.
"Yes, but do take my heart out and place it inside the box. Perhaps we can give it as a present for the Dazzlings. So they have something to remember of the 'old Sunset.'" Sunset said, making Shadow Pony let out a cackle. Sunset was slowly but surely becoming more corrupted as the days flew by. Eventually, she would be completely corrupted, and he could then use her for the invasion of Equestria. He was also gonna invade this world and take it over to make sure, he was the number one ruler.
Sunset checked the bag and saw all of the money. She started to count all of the bills, and concluded that she had earned five thousand dollars. She was smiling a bit to wide, and said to Shadow Pony; "Five thousand dollars, that's not bad."
Shadow Pony cackled a little. He knew that Shimmer would be a good companion in the future. He then looked through her mind and saw all of her despair. He said in a very low voice that only he could hear; "Not bad indeed..."
Author's Note
And here is the fifth chapter!
Sorry for the long delay guys, I didn't really know what I wanted to get out, but here it is! I hope you enjoy!
6 - The Terrifying Present
Removing your very own heart is no fun. Sunset can tell you that. Shadow Pony had removed her 'old' heart and replaced it with a new heart that was black and corrupted with hatred, despair, sadness, and more. In other words, it isn't anything good. Sunset had screamed when Shadow Pony removed it, but the thing was... she enjoyed it. It was like a weird massage for her, and she didn't know why she in all honesty liked it. It was three days until it was Christmas Eve or Hearts Warming.
She was currently inside a basement of a house that belongs to some idiotic millionaire. Sunset did wonder whether she should kill him or not. He hadn't done her anything, she was simply bored . She had been feeling that a lot lately. She kept looking at her old heart and felt a sense of longing for it. She wondered why, but she would learn that soon enough... hopefully.
She was wondering whether or not give the heart to the Dazzlings. She had told Shadow Pony that she would. But she wasn't so sure now. Then again, it could be an early present. She was in such good spirit these days. She felt happier these days also. Perhaps it was Shadow Pony's doing. She didn't mind.
She heard voices above the basement, and she groaned. It was the sixth time they'd have had sex that day! Not that she minded... but she was trying to concentrate! How was she suppose to do that, if they are screaming louder than someone being tortured in the worst possible ways?! She would have to silence them or use a spell to make sure she doesn't hear any of the idiocy going on.
The basement was filled with different items. It looked more like a storage area where they place old items that they don't need or whatever. The walls were gray from the stone that had not been coloured. The floor was rainbow-like. It looked like the colour the gas has for the car. It certainly had the smell to it. There were a few shelves against the walls with different items. All of a sudden, she heard a low cackling sound coming from somewhere. She looked around, preparing herself to strike first. Her eyes became black like a demons, and she scanned the whole area.
Shadow Pony looked around to make sure there was no human or other pathetic creature trying to attack from above. He didn't sense anything except for Sunset and the two dunderheads who were going at it. "Where are the intruders? Shadow Pony asked, in a hissing language-like voice. Strangely enough, Sunset understood it.
"I don't know, did you find anything?" Sunset asked, making Shadow Pony grunt in response. In other words it was no. Unless, you counted the idiots. The sounds got louder, and Shadow Pony had a feeling that Sunset was gonna get angry so he used a dark spell to make sure absolutely nothing was heard where they were at. "Oh my fucking Celestia! If they become louder I will rip their guts out!"
Shadow Pony cackled a little. He knew that it was simply corruption talking. As well as the heart...
"I can help you with that if you want. I wouldn't mind, and I could sell the organs for serious money also. We would be solid." Shadow Pony said, making Sunset sigh in response. She was getting more agitated and angry as of late. She'd explode in anger for the smallest of things. She wasn't angry at the Dazzlings. She was angry at the disgusting Rainbooms. She was gonna get them when she gets the chance...
"Sounds good. I think I'll kill them now." Sunset said, as she walked towards the basement door and used a silencing spell to not make a sound when she ripped the door of its hinges. Sunset did just that, and looked around the house. Shs was currently in some sort of hallway that had a staircase to her left that had a red mat. She walked up the stairs, not paying attention to the valuable items. She simply wanted to kill the idiotic sex addicts. Shadow Pony covered her body like armor, as she ascended the stairs. When she got up she looked to her right and heard the moans and groans come from there. There was a large red carpet on the floor and large paintings on the walls that made the place feel more like a castle. Sunset was getting irritated again. She really needed to take some chill pills.
She walked down the hallway until she was outside the door where the two animals were at. Sunset allowed her anger to take control and kicked the door in, and walked inside to the couple who screamed in surprise. There was a tall guy with brilliant gamboge skin, two tones of moderate sapphire blue hair and vivid cornflower blue eyes. It was none other than Flash Sentry. Sunset smiled to herself. This was gonna be fun.
"Okay fuckers, get out of bed. Instead of cum on the bed there will be blood on the bed. Not the good one from great sex either!!" Sunset said, as she was slowly losing it. Normally Flash would have blushed in embarrassment, but he was honestly frightened. Who was this girl? She just kicks the door in and threatens them? He was gonna find some answeres. The girl who he had been having sex with, was a thirty year old woman who had dark black hair and scarlet red eyes with a hint of blue. She had grayish green skin and was currently covering herself. She was quite frightened by what was going on.
"Who the hell are you!?" Flash demanded, making Sunset look at him with wonder. Flash couldn't see, as Sunset was covered in ooze. He felt a little nerve by the way she seemed to look at him. It was a look that suggested that she knew him from somewhere. Sunset used a dark feminine voice so they wouldn't recognise it. Although, she could make an exception this one time. She changed her voice back to normal and said in her normal voice:
"Should I be hurt for the fact that you don't remember me?" Flash felt how his whole body froze. Sunset hadn't done anything, it was just from shock. The woman in the room looked at the ooze covered girl as she felt fear. What did the girl want? "I'm not Anon-A-Miss you know. Sadly, because that you have been pissing me of for the last few days when I have been living in your basement, and I have heard every little orgasm this whore has gotten. I want to kill you both."
Before Flash could react or do anything, Sunset used her ooze large arms and made a large hole in Flash. The woman screamed in shock. Sunset looked over at her and gave a smile. The ooze that covered Sunset's face went away as Sunset smiled down at her. The woman was still covering her body with the bed covers. Sunset pulled them away with her strength and whistled. The woman was angry, but she felt terrified. The woman had a f-cup sized breasts that made Sunset feel intimidated.... if she cared that is. The womans legs were something that would make any woman jealous. Her bum must be quite big. "Nice body. I understand why Flash took a liking to you, although, he was probably just in for the sex itself." Sunset said, making the angry woman glare at the intruder.
"No he wasn't! He loved me!" The woman said, making Sunset laugh. She felt kind of bad for the woman. Not really...
"Maybe he did, so that is why you'll see him in the afterlife!" Sunset said, with sadistic glee. She pulled out a ooze made knife, and stabed the woman right in the abdomen. The woman cried out, and Sunset pulled out the knife and did it again, and again, and again. She was letting lose all of her pent up anger. She didn't realize that the whole bed was covered in blood when she was finally finished. Her arms that were covered in ooze had blood on them, and her hands were completely covered in the womans blood. Her hands were shaking from the aggression she felt. Her eyes were pitch black, but it was slowly going over to red. She was still angry though, and she didn't know what to do about it.
Shadow Pony formed himself in front of Sunset and he lay on the bed in a human form. Sunset was lost in her thoughts, and didn't notice Shadow Pony being naked in front of her. Shadow Pony himself was waiting for Sunset. He had a feeling that she might feel pleasure if he helped her out. Then again, he wasn't sure if she'd be interested either. Sunset felt how her chest was aching from pain as she clutched her chest. Her nails were digging into her skin, and wasn't far away from making herself bleed. Her eyes were closed, but she started to slowly open themselves up. She saw Shadow Pony in his ooze form... naked...
"What are you doing?" Sunset asked, making Shadow Pony shrug. In all honesty he wasn't really sure what he was doing himself. He had great package, Sunset noticed...
"You are still angry, so I assumed that it perhaps was another form of frustration that you had. Thought I should help you out." Shadow Pony said, making Sunset look at him. She wasn't angry at him, as she did feel a sense of lust towards him, but she didn't have time to fuck around. She had work to do.
"Thanks for the though, although, I have work to do. I got to deliver the heart to the Dazzlings. I still want them to have my heart, so they have something to cry over." Sunset said, as she started to feel happy and was grinning from ear to ear. Shadow Pony did his version of rolling his eyes and manifested himself on to Sunset.
Sunset walked out of the blood filled room, and walked down the same hallway she did to come to the two lovebirds. She was grinning. She was angry, but she was angry slash happy. She didn't know where it was coming from, but it was strangely soothing to her. Without realising it, she was outside. She looked around her surroundings and froze a little. She was nowhere near The expensive mansion! Where was she...?
Shadow Pony felt her emotion and felt mildly confused. Why was she scared all of a sudden? He then grinned as he realized what was going on. She was experiencing hallucinations. She hadn't hallucinated the house slash mansion, but she was hallucinating the walk and where she was. That is, if he read her mind correctly. He decided to not bother her with it as it was late, and he was quite angry at other reasons.
Sunset looked around again, and realized that she was in the same neighbourhood her friends lived. The Dazzlings were gonna get a great present. She saw the large mansion and teleported herself there, with the help of Shadow Pony's magic. The door on the outside hadn't changed much. She felt how the ooze made a opening between her stomach and chest area, and how something made out of metal came sliding out. Sunset grabbed the object and looked at it. The same metal box she had found with the black corrupted heart in. Sunset let out a sadistic glee and placed the heart on the front door step. She had written a letter and it was inside the box. She watched her red heart as it was still and unmoving. Beside it was a letter written in Equestrian.
She then used her magic to close the box and ring the door bell. Sunset teleported to the roof, and waited for one of the sirens to open the door. She heard how one of her friends opened the door and looked around. She heard how the voice of Sonata asked; "Hey Aria, did you order anything?" There was a voicing of confusion.
"No i didn't, why?"
"Because there is a metal box on the front door step." Sonata said, making Aria sprint towards the door. She had read a lot of books and seen a lot of movies and TV shows to know what is most likely happening. Aria was at the door fully worried for her innocent sister. A thousand thoughts were surging through Aria's head. One that kept popping up, was; who sent it?
Aria carefully got on her knees listening for any sounds of ticking. She heard none, and picked it up carefully. Adagio had just gotten out of the shower and had dried up when she saw her sisters at the door. She walked up towards them, not being bothered by the chilly wind. She felt how her mind was asking a thousand questions.
"What is going on?" Adagio asked, making Aria turn to her and show her the metal box. Adagio felt how she felt red flags being raised in her mind. "Does it say who its from?" Aria shook her head.
Aria then slowly and carefully, opened it. Sonata would probably have fainted if it wasn't for the fact that she felt shocked. Aria felt sick when she saw the heart. Adagio was quiet when she saw the heart. She didn't know what to feel. For some odd reason, she felt like she knew who it belonged to. She noticed the letter and pointed it towards Aria who nodded. Adagio reached for it and opened the letter. She proceeded to read the letter out loud in full context.
Dear Adagio Dazzle, Aria Blaze, and Sonata Dusk
It's pretty lonely without you three. Anyways, I wanted to give you this amazing gift as a thank you. I will be taking revenge on my former friends by gutting them. I love you three you know. Anyways, I wanted to also let you know that I met a certain Flash Sentry today. I hope he is enjoying Tartarus, not that I killed him or anything. That was all I wanted to let you know about.
- Sunset Shimmer
The three sirens looked at each other and felt shock. Did she really do this? Did she really pull out her own heart? That is a dangerous process which was let known by Sonata who had tears in her eyes from worry.
"I think it is the Pony Of Shadow's doing. He is the only i can think of that could possibly do something like that. Then again, he is more violent than most entities." Adagio said, making Ario look at her questionably. Adagio didn't feel like elaborating. "I simply hope that Sunset knows that she is corrupted."
The three sirens walked inside and closed the door behind them. On another roof, Sunset had heard everything and also seen it after she jumped from the roof she had been on before. She simply asked herself this; was she truly corrupted? She should have known that if she payed attention to Shadow Pony's sign of anger...

1 - The Heart Breaking Betrayal
Sunset Shimmer. A girl who has made a lot of wrong doings, but has done everything in her power to make things right. She has sinned and sinned, but she has been graced with the magic of friendship. Or so she thought... there she was in the hallway crying her eyes out, while her friends had walked away looking at her with hateful eyes. Sunset didn't know what to say or do. What had she done to deserve this hate? She knows of her wrong doings in the past, Hell, she hasn't fully forgiven herself from doing those things. Well, no one at the school apparently had, as many of them were now pointing fingers at her from something she didn't do.
There is this account on Mystable with the name Anon-A-Miss, that has been spreading secrets about people at the school, specifically the students. Sunset was quick to blame. Everyone pointed their fingers at her, and whispered at her. Her friends had at first, been supportive and showed that they didn't believe she did it. Then... that day came, they, like everyone else in Sunset's life, left her and believed she did it. Sunset was without a doubt incredibly hurt and betrayed. She didn't know what to do or say. They told her terrible things.
"We trusted you Sunset!"
You.. You secret stealer!
Your not our friend!
"I'm sorry, but you did this to us. Tell whatever secrets you want, but we don't have to listen."
Sunset had been let down by many ponies and people in her life, but her very own friends was something she couldn't handle. She felt as though, she had been stabbed several times. She finally lost it. She finally lost the one thing that kept her rage in place. Well, if they are willing to leave her just like that, then what does she have to lose? Nothing...
Sunset picked herself up and slowly, and shakily, opened her locker. She saw all of her photos she had of her friends, and felt pain in her stomach. She felt rage, sadness, and confusion. After everything she did for them, didn't it matter or prove that she had changed? Apparently not.
Sunset looked at her backpack and allowed her own body to pick everything from her locker and put it in her bag. She didn't know if she would continue going to school, but if it means getting an education then perhaps yes she would. She was only gonna study, and take her mind of what happened. Her friends would come around wouldn't they? Hopefully they would.
Sunset sighed, and headed to Home Economics. She shared this class with Applejack, and felt dread in her stomach. She entered the classroom and saw that Applejack was sitting in the very back of the class glaring at Sunset hatefully. Sunset took a seat in the middle at the front of the class. The other students were glaring at Sunset, and looked at her threateningly. Sunset didn't feel any emotion. It was like she just shut of from everything around her. The teacher came in, and she started the class. She gave Sunset an angry stare and went on with the class.
When the class was over, Sunset felt someone grab her and pull her up against the wall. Sunset saw that it was Gilda, and she couldn't do anything other than smile an hateful smile. Some students nearby looked a bit surprised, and stepped back. NEVER get in the way of an angry Sunset Shimmer. They have seen how she is when she is angry, and did not want to see how she was when she is hateful.
Gilda being the fucking idiot she is, saw this as mockery and punched Sunset in the face, breaking her nose. Sunset then to everyone's shock, laughed as if it was the funnies thing in the world. Gilda felt angry, but now, even she was feeling frightened. The other students started walking away, and Gilda she turned around and walked away looking confused by the turn of events. The only one's who remained was Snips and Snails. They looked at Sunset in concern which made her look at them twice.
"What do you two want? Here to punch me?" Sunset asked, making Snips and Snails shake their heads. They were expecting this kind of response from Sunset, so they bowed down in respect and looked up. They don't believe for a second that Sunset is doing it. The idiot doing it is without a doubt, an amateur.
"No, we wanted to say that we believe you. You are not this sloppy. Your way to smart for that. This is an amateur job. They don't know what they're doing clearly." Snips said, making Sunset look at him surprised. She had forgotten that Snips could sometimes be quite smart when he wanted to. She did enjoy helping them with homework and what not.
"Thank you. Well, don't you guys have classes to attend to?" Sunset asked, making them shake their heads.
"Not for another ten minutes. If you want, we can hang around the abandoned corridor. We know for a fact that no one is ever there. Then again, it is a creepy corridor." Snails said, making the other two nod in agreement. The corridor was always empty, and no one hung around there at all. Sunset, Snips, and Snails would be there all the time. In fact, students always wondered where they have been to. It was funny, they weren't even trying to hide either.
"Yes, we can. So, what have you two been up to?" Sunset asked, as the three old friends walked together down the corridors where students gave them hateful stares. The duo shrugged a little.
"A little hanging around here and there, and doing our homework. We missed you actually." Snips said, making Sunset stop in her tracks. She looked at them shocked. They missed her? But she had been horrible to them!
"Why? I was awful to you two." Sunset said, making the two smile. If she is willing to say that, then it was clear that she has without a doubt changed. They continued walking, and Snails decided to answer her.
"That may be true, but you have changed from your old ways. Then again, I wouldn't blame you for going 'dark' because of everything that has been going on for the last few days." Snpis said, making Snails nod and Sunset go into her own little world of thoughts. They reached their hang-out spot and started to share stories about their life on what has been going on. Sunset did the same and could tell that they were angry for what happened to her and her ex-friends. Sunset smiled a little when they told her that they still had blackmail material if she needed it.
The bell rang, and they groaned together. Sunset walked with them, and hurried to her next class which was gym. It was also her final lesson, so she didn't have to be more tortured then she already was. Sunset walked away when Snips and Snails turned a corner and gave them a wave which they happily returned. Sunset walked down the corridors that started becoming empty of people in the hallways, and that made Sunset relax a little. She didn't want to deal with more other idiots then she had to. What she hadn't noticed was that there was a tiny bit of black smoke fixing her broken nose.
She reached the female changing room, and entered. The room had several lockers, a shower area and some benches. Luckily, there was only two other girls in the room. One girl with seaweed green hair and light green skin. The second girl was... Rainbow Dash. Sunset went immediately for her locker pretending that she hadn't seen either girl. It didn't work. She felt pain on her right side and fell to the ground. She looked up and saw Rainbow Dash in a grey t-shirt and dark blue shorts. She looked down at Sunset hatefully. Sunset looked at her with disdain, which made Rainbow Dash kick her in the face. Sunset was lucky enough to dodge.
Sunset from bellow Rainbow Dash, grabbed her legs lifted her. Rainbow fell down backwards hitting her head on the floor, but Sunset was lucky because the traitor of a girl was still up. Sunset looked at Rainbow with malice. She got up and kicked Rainbow over, and over again. Sunset did this for two minutes having completely forgotten about the other girl. Sunset enjoyed kicking Rainbow Dash, and it showed. She let out an sadistic glee, which made the other unknown girl in the room shiver.
Sunset went to her gym locker and pulled everything out. If she was gonna be attacked like that then it was probably for the best that she didn't come to school at all. She walked around the corridors and eventually found the principles office. She knocked on the door, and was greeted with a 'come in.' Sunset opened and closed the door. Inkwell looked up and grunted inside when she saw Sunset. "Here to see the principle?" She asked, hoping to get the girl out of her sight.
"Yes mam." Sunset responded, with respect to the other woman. Inkwell just nodded and told her to go through the door to the right. Sunset did so, and was greeted with principle Celestia looking at Sunset with questioning eyes. Sunset stod until she was given a greeting to sit down which came, and Sunset did so.
"Sunset, why are you posting these secrets online?" Celestia asked, making Sunset look at her as if she had lost it. Her principle couldn't seriously think she has anything to do with it, does she? Apparently she did. Sunset sighed.
"I'm not even gonna dignify that with a response. I want to drop out of school." Sunset said, making Celestia look at Sunset in shock. She wanted to drop out? She had heard that Sunset already had trouble finding a job because she didn't have legitimate evidence that she existed. The principle had hoped that if, when Sunset is looking for a job she had a higher chance at getting one.
"Sunset i-" Celestia started, but was cut of by Sunset who looked at the principle with malice. She believes she is Anon-A-Miss and doesn't want Sunset to drop out? Why? So she can get beaten up by other students?
"No principle, this is my decision. You even believe that I'm Anon-A-Miss, which i don't know if I should laugh at or cry at. I was recently attacked by one of my ex-friends and I'm not in the mood right now to bicker. Either you do as I asked, and help me drop out of school, or you do your fucking job, and try to find Anon-A-Miss." Sunset said, making Celestia stare at the firery haird girl in shock. Sunset never ever swore! At all. The other students even said that, no matter how angry she got, she never swore. Celestia understood that Sunset must then have lost her patience. Celestia now realized that Sunset couldn't have done it. How she knows, is what Celestia is unsure herself about.
"Okay Sunset, I'll sign the papers. Promise me to take care of yourself." Celestia said, looking at the girl in front of her. Sunset looked at Celestia and grunted out a response. Celestia seemed happy with that, and signed a few papers. Sunset left without saying goodbye and headed for the exit.
Sunset had packed everything out, and didn't worry about taking any possessions she had, because she had none. Even if she did, it was most likely from her ex-friends. She wanted nothing to do with them at all, and she would intend to keep it that way. She walked out of the school, and left without looking behind her. She would miss the school, but she wouldn't miss the students or teachers in it. For an outsider, that probably sounds depressing, but for Sunset it sounds like reality.
Sunset walked through the snowy paths of the sidewalk back to her place. She lived in a small apartment that was quite cozy sometimes. She had never told her ex-friends about it, because she knew if she had, they would use that against her. She walked down the paths that lead to her apartment, and saw some of the pedestrians walking by, and how they looked at their family and friends. friends . The one thing she had always been longing for, and now it was completely gone. Sunset sighed, and walked to her apartment.
When she reached her apartment, she noticed that there was a car there. On the outside was a small parking lot, but there was a BMW with black metal around it. There wasn't anybody inside of the vehicle. Sunset just ignored it and continued walking up a flight of stairs to her apartments. She lived in a relatively quiet area, and wasn't worried much about thugs or anything as they were almost never in the area. Sunset got her key and unlocked her door. She swung it opened and stepped inside. She closed the door, and locked it. She looked around her apartment and saw her small living room. She had a living room, kitchen, bedroom and bathroom.
She walked over to her couch and lay down, and was thinking about her life. Where had everything gone so horribly wrong? Where had this Anon-A-Miss come from? Sunset had no idea. She in all honesty, didn't not care. Anon-A-Miss is nothing more than a whore who destroyed Sunset's life. She had nothing to lose now. No friends, family, school, no one holding her back. Sunset smiled a wicked smile. She had nothing to lose . Well, this would be fun indeed.
Sunset woke up the next day, and jolted out of the sofa. She then remembered where she was, and what had happened. She calmed down, but still felt rage and panic. Sunset got out of her sofa, and walked in to her kitchen. She pulled out her cereal, and poured down some milk. She was to tired to do anything else. She sat down on one her sofa and turned on the TV.
She didn't own a lot of things, but the TV was one of her more "prideful" possessions. She didn't use it overly much, but she sure did watch if she was really bored. They did have some fun shows, but humans mostly seems to be into violence. Sunset for some odd reason grinned at that.
"How fun isn't that? Violence and hatred, the best fucking combination." Sunset said, out loud to herself. She didn't know why she was saying these things but she sure liked being this free . Sunset ate her cereal while watching some show called; NCIS . It was a pretty good show. Sunset watched as the characters rushed into a building and killed a few guys. Sunset snorted. The villains clearly can't use their weapons, no wonder they don't get anything done.
Sunset heard a buzzing noise and checked her phone. Sunset sighed an angry sigh. It was from Rainbow Crash. Sunset unlocked her phone, and read the message.
Rainbow: "How could you do this to us you bitch!? I will kill you!"
Sunset snorted. She? Kill her? Not bloody likely. Sunset smiled, and decided to play with her, and not respond at all. It worked. Rainbow didn't send more messages, and Sunset smiled in victory. She still got hateful messages, but Sunset blocked the ones threatening her. Sunset laughed out loud at the thought. Did Rainbow have the guts to kill her? All of a sudden, Sunset was hit with a wave of sadness. She cried a little, and thought about what her friends have said to her.
"What in the name of Tartarus should i do?" Sunset said, out loud. Like she had expected, no one responded. In reality, she didn't want an answer either. She liked saying things out loud so she can hear her own thoughts. She honestly hoped that she could one day move past this hatred she feels and sadness, but she knew the answer to that. She most likely wouldn't move past it, then again, she have tendency to keep a hold of the past.
"HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA."
Sunset thought she heard a faint laugh for a second. Sunset shook of the thought. She had more important things to take care of. Sunset all of a sudden got a phone call. Sunset checked the number and saw that it was an unknown number. She decided to sound pissed.
"The fuck you want?" Sunset asked, and she heard a cackle on the other end. Sunset was confused but didn't say anything. She in all honesty, was to tired to give a flying fuck about anything like that. The voice on the other end sounded quite amused in all honesty.
"My my, you sound so angry then i last remember. What happened?" Adagio asked, on the other end. Sunset knew it was Adagio, she only needed a voice and she would recognize the person. Especially villains. Well, she is a villain herself, so she shouldn't say anything bad about villains.
"What do you want? I'm kind of fucking busy." Sunset said, feeling her blood boiling. She didn't realize that Adagio's sisters were listening in. They looked at each other shocked. They knew that Sunset had anger but not this type of anger. Aria looked a little nerved by what she heard Sunset say. Sunset was seething, and it was heard.
"How did you find my number anyways? And for the love of Tartarus don't play games on me. I'm not in the mood." Sunset said, making the sisters flinch by the tone of her voice. Adagio calmed herself a little, and told her;
"We found them on contact numbers on different small apartments guide. You came up as a tour guide." Adagio said, with honesty in her voice. Sunset relaxed a little, since it wasn't their fault. They simply called a number and wasn't expecting her. For all they knew she in their eyes could have been this worlds Sunset.
"Fine, are you looking for an apartment in the gangster area of town? I can work with that. Want my address?" Sunset asked, in a haze. She had to much going on to deal with them right now. The sisters on the other end looked at each other. They could hear the anger, and in all honesty, they wondered what has angered this girl to the point were they could taste her hatred.
"Sure, where do you want to meet us?" Sonata asked, kindly. It only made Sunset more angry. They didn't know that though, since they only heard her breathing.
"I'll text you the address." Sunset said, with malice, and hung up. She felt rage. For a few months she was living normal, and happy. Now, she is angry at people for simply calling her. She didn't know what to do with all her pent up rage. Normally she would go to the gym, but now, she s stuck in that situation that someone maybe recognizes her. She sighed. She had no idea where she should start improving. Especially for herself .
In another part of Canterlot in a small café, sat three girls looking at one phone of their older sister. The oldest of the group had brilliant raspberry, her skin was pale apple green. Her hair was luminous vivid orange with brilliant yellow streaks. Her hair was bushy, and made her look quite attractive. The second girl had moderate mulberry eyes. Her hair was in two pony tails and moderate purple with light brilliant aquamarine streaks. The last girl had moderate raspberry eyes. Her mane was light arctic blue with moderate persian blue stripes. Their names were Adagio Dazzle, Aria Blaze, and Sonata Dusk respectively and they are sisters.
They looked at each other, and had the same question in their head; 'What happened to Sunset Shimmer?' They may have dislike her, and wanted revenge, but when Sunset came at them like that with no mercy in her words, it made them wonder what happened to the girl. Aria may be a hot head, but by the sound of Sunset Shimmer, even she would be cautious of her as to not anger her more than she already was.
Adagio could be manipulative, but she could hear that Sunset wouldn't give her any information as to why Sunset is the way she is today. Then again, who would trust the ones who manipulated a whole school? Adagio frowned. What happened to that girl? She used to have a lot of good energy, now, she is a fraction of who she ones was.
"What happened to her Dagi?" Sonata asked, quietly. She was the one who was okay with everyone. Sunset was interesting to her, and only bullied her when her sisters did it. She was hoping that Sunset wasn't going through something terrible. Adagio couldn't answer, she really couldn't. She had heard the stories about how Sunset ruled the school with an iron hand, and was blackmailing students. If this was the 'old' Sunset, then she hated to think how she is if she even can go worse then she apparently already is.
"I don't know Sonata. I really don't. Whatever it is, I hope she is alright." Adagio said, looking to be lost in thought. Aria was also lost in thoughts thinking about the possibilities of what might have happened. Adagio did the same, and the ideas she had was worse then the last one.
The phone vibrate around the small circular table. They looked at the message and it read;
Unknown number; Sugarcube Corner ally. You better be there. The sirens sighed. At least they got an address. Aria was confused. Why didn't bacon girl send a day and time? Aria looked at Adagio questionably. Adagio looked at her confused, then realized what she was meaning.
"She wants to meet us now." Adagio said, making Aria nod in understanding. They got up from their table and left. They walked around the city of Canterlot trying to find Sugarcube Corner. Sonata was quiet which frightened both sisters. Sonata is almost never quiet. Adagio would never admit it, but she kind of liked the bickering. It meant that nothing was wrong, but now, it was clear that something was very wrong.
"Sonata, your a little quiet over there. Is everything alright?" Adagio asked, looking in her direction. Sonata looked up and saw the worried faces of Adagio and Aria. She sighed sadly. She didn't want to worry her sisters, but it was clear that she couldn't hide it from them.
"I'm just worried about Sun-shim." Sonata said, making them first look at her weirdly, then have a look of recognition. They nodded in understanding and kept walking. They reached Sugarcube Corner. They looked around both ally's, but wasn't sure which to take, but then they heard music...
https://m .
Aria recognized it because she heard it before. It was from a Swedish rapper named Éinar, and his music is pretty good in her opinion. They walked towards the sound. Sonata walked carefully, while Aria was ready for any fight. Adagio was prepared herself, but she dearly hoped it was Sunset and not someone else.
They reached a small clearing. Well, as clear as an ally can become. There were some garbage bins and filth everywhere. They saw... Sunset? She was wearing a grey hoodie with sport clothing together with sport shoes. She was drinking some alcohol and blasting music from her phone. The sirens were shocked. 'What in the name of the Gods had happened to her?' Were the same line of thought that was going through their heads. They walked cautiously towards Sunset who had noticed them and was grinning like a mad woman.
"You came." She said, with fake cheer. Then she sneered at them. This greatly surprised them. It was as if she didn't know what to feel. Then again, she was currently talking to three sirens who controlled the school. "I was wondering when you'd show up. Now, how big do you want the apartment to be?"
Adagio was the one who answered, although, not about the apartment. "Sunset what happened to you? Why are you like this?" Adagio asked, Sunset who just raised her brow at them. The sisters frowned. They were hoping to see what happened to Sunset, but apparently they weren't the right people.
"Doesn't matter. Now, how. Big. Do. You. Want. The . Apartment. To. Be?" Sunset said, through gritted teeth. Aria was the one who flinched by her tone. Usually she can handle it without problem, but this, this was something else. Adagio took a step back, and Sonata hid behind Adagio and Aria. Sunset chuckled at their gobsmacked faces. She was in all honesty tired, but time was money.
"We want a large apartment or house." Adagio said, sighting in defeat. She hadn't given up, but she sure as Hell was gonna make Sunset change, even if Sunset doesn't want the help. Sunset nodded and pulled out her phone and texted a few companies she helped. She doesn't really have a real job, but she does however help other people with finding their apartments and houses. She doesn't really work for a specific company either. Wherever she is needed, that is who she helps. She does get payed from it also, but again, it isn't really her official job since she doesn't have one.
While Sunset was texting different companies about any large houses or apartments, the Dazzlings were looking at Sunset oddly, and cautiously. Sunset was aware of this and started grinning again. Aria felt provocted, but didn't say anything. Adagio was trying to read Sunset's expression, but she couldn't. Sonata wanted to hug Sunset but wasn't sure if Sun-shim would accept it or not. Sunset then put her phone back in her pocked, still blasting music.
"You'll get a response in a few days. Now, want to annoy me more?" Sunset asked, making the sirens look at Sunset defeated. They weren't getting anything out of her. They knew it. Sonata walked towards Sunset and hugged her. To everyone's surprise, Sunset slowly, hugged back. This greatly surprised the three sisters including Sonata. Sunset then slowly pulled away, and looked at them with an unreadable expression.
"See ya around." Sunset said, and walked away from the three sirens in the opposite direction of the ally. Music blasting. Adagio then shouted at her;
"WAIT!" Adagio shouted, making Sunset turn around. There was something going on between them. Adagio was trying to read Sunset, while Sunset tried doing the same thing with Adagio. "Where are you going?"
Adagio had no idea why she asked that, but she did. Her sisters looked at her cunfusedly, but she ignored them. This was important. She had to know where Sunset was going. Sunset let out a menacing cackle, which made the three sirens shiver a little. Sunset looked at them again with disdain.
"Does it matter? Well, I you have to know, I'm going home. Not worth sticking around here while you came for what you wanted. Besides, I got more important things to do than look like a fucking slut!" Sunset shouted, the last part making the sirens widen their eyes. Adagio had been called worse in her life, but she still felt hurt. Adagio had no idea why it hurt her. She did in all honesty not care what people called her. But this time. This was different. Sunset seemed to realize what she had said, and looked at the sirens. She looked like she tried to say something but ran way.
"Sunset!" Sonata shouted after Sunset, but she was already to far gone. The others looked at each other and sighed sadly. They knew that it was impossible now to go after her. She was to far gone, and Sunset was experienced with getting away from trouble.
They walked out thensame way Sunset ran from, and made sure to still keep their eyes peeled if they saw Sunset. Adagio wasn't sure what had been going on, but she sure as Hell was gonna find out.
Sunset was running at a speed she thought she couldn't possibly reach. She had been running away from the sirens and was running towards her apartment, which she reached a few minutes ago. She opened and closed the door quickly. She was breathing heavily, and felt like she reached a new running record.
She didn't mean to sound that hateful towards them, but it still came out like that. She could see that she had hurt Adagio. Shs didn't mean to hurt her, it just came out. The ones asking for what was going on was pushed away, because she said something hurtful.
"Why do I always keep pushing everyone away without meaning to?" Sunset asked, herself. She hoped that she could one day find the answer, but she knew that it would take a very long time for that to come to her. She simply had to wait and see what answer came to her. "like the other times."
Sunset walked to her couch and lay down. She didn't know what to do, but she did have to do one thing. Earn quick and easy money. She needed the money. She then realized that she could do something that wasn't legal at all. Crime. She could sell drugs or something, and earn some easy money that way. Then again. She could also be doing her worst mistake by doing so. She pulled out her computer that were on her small coffee table, and opened it up. She went to Google and searched up Tor. She made some clicks here and there, and she was in. Luckily, she wasn't into the very deep black market. She didn't want to get to deep. She simply wanted access to the drugs and weapons. She immediately started to search for weapons. She found a glock 17 for simply six thousand. It was a lot. Although, it looked to be the most cheapest. Sunset sighed, and decided to order one. She put in an extra fifty so it would be delivered to her. She had at least twelve thousand dollars she had saved for her few years helping different apartment slash house companies. She started to look for drug sites. She needed to start selling to earn real fucking money.
Sunset found one site that seemed to be specifically for drugs. Sunset smiled a little, and started looking to see what they had. She found some meth and steroids worth at least two thousand dollars. Sunset smiled a little. She had lost eight thousand, but could potentially earn more if she is lucky. She ordered it for two thousand fifty so she could get it delivered also. She then closed her computer after exiting the black market.
She looked into nothingness and sighed to herself. She didn't expect herself to stoop to this level. Then again, she didn't expect to be betrayed either. She then heard her phone ringing. She saw that someone was calling her. It was an unknown number. Sunset knew it was the sirens. Sunset picked up and answered with;
"Hello?"
"Sunset, are you doing anything? If not, would you like to come with me and my sisters to a karaoke bar? We sing there sometimes, and drink. Interested?" Adagio asked, making Sunset widen her eyes in surprise. She didn't expect that. She looked over at her clock and saw it was 19:00. She smiled to herself. What could it possibly hurt?
"Sure, I have nothing better to do anyways. I might have to leave early because I have ordered some stuff and I'm not sure how quick they are with services." Sunset said, making the Dazzlings look at each other in surprise. They were surprised that she decided to come at all, but were surprised by what she had just said. They didn't know she had a credit card.
"I didn't know you had a credit card. Concerning where we technically come from." Adagio said, making Sunset smile a little. Oh, she had not used a credit card. She was gonna pay in cash. She decided to hint that to Adagio.
"Oh, I didn't use a credit card. I'll be paying in cash." Sunset said, and she could practically taste the tension between her and her sisters. Aria looked at her sister and realized what Sunset maybe had done. Sonata was clueless and perhaps that was for the best as the thing Adagio and Aria suspected her of doing can be seen as hard-core crime. "I know what you might be thinking, and yes, I did resort to crime. Besides, I don't technically exist in this world. I'm just a girl that have some anger issues."
Aria would have snorted at that, but she was afraid if she did that, then bacon girl wouldn't come. Adagio also gave Aria a warning glance, so that would be counted aswell. Sonata didn't know if she agreed with some anger issues, because she seemed to be a walking demon for a split second when she looked rageful. Adagio didn't know whether to humor the girl or not. She decided against it. She didn't exactly want Sunset to be angry at her then she appeared to already be. What she may have done is what is what makes her confused. Then again, she already seemed angry at something. So it probably wasn't related to her and her sisters.
"Sunset, do you even want to come? You don't have to if you don't want to." Adagio said, making her sister's look at her surprised. They had decided to take Sunset out to the karaoke bar to see if she would reveal anything while drunk. Then again, it seemed like Sunset was angry. Anger and alcohol is not a good combination...
Sunset rolled her eyes. She was expecting this question to be brought up. Then again, she would have lied if she said that she doesn't sound irritated or angry. "Yes, Dazzle, I'm very sure. I need to do something. Besides, I need to get drunk so your master plan can be a success and get your information." Sunset said, making the Dazzlings on the other side freeze. Adagio was quiet, and slowly started to grin. Aria looked amazed by Sunset's knowledge. Sonata had widened eyes. No one had ever figured out before the plan happened! Especially with Adagio!
"How did you figure it out?" Adagio asked, grinning from ear to ear. She was amazed. No creature had ever been able to outsmart her. Sunset though, didn't see the big deal in it. Aria was still looking at the phone, and saw the name Sunset Shimmer on it. She wished she knew how to do that to her sister. Then again, anger can sometimes make you realize things quicker than normal people can. Sunset smirked to herself. She may not see the big deal in it, but if Adagio is asking how she outsmarted her, then it must be big.
"Well, karaoke places usually have a bar to drink at. It was quite easy really. Then again, it must be the first time someone outsmarted you by the sound of your voice." Sunset said, smirking into the phone. Now, Adagio's grin was wider if It was even possible. This girl is good. Aria looked down at the phone in disbelief. Easy? Her sister is anything but easy. Then again, Sunset seems to be more angry than she should possibly be. She might be thinking more different then she usually does. Sonata looked at the phone with interest. She then decided to speak to Sunset.
"Hello Sun-shim!! I heard that you were coming to the karaoke bar with us!" Sonata said, making Sunset chuckle unto the phone. Aria and Adagio looked at Sonata questionably. Sonata just grinned while her sisters just shrugged.
"I would expect that. I mean your right beside Adagio and Aria." Sunset said, as if it was casual thing to say. Aria now looked around them they wee at a burger joint, and there was them the staff and some other people their enjoying their meal. There was no one that was even remotely close to bacon girl. Adagio was very close to just cackle, but refrained from doing so. Sonata looked like Sunset had guessed right in a guessing game.
"My my Sunset, you have my admiration. Where are you exactly?" Adagio asked, sounding genuinely impressed. Sunset just smirked on the other end. The Dazzlings could just see it in front of them.
"Believe it or not, but I'm at my apartment. I had a feeling that if you called, one of the others would be nearby. Its all a guessing game, and I got it right." Sunset said, making the Dazzlings show genuine interest in her knowledge.
"Well, the karaoke bar is called; Storm Kings Karaoke. I guess we'll see you there?" Adagio said, but it sounded more like a question. Sunset simply hung up, and put her phone in her pocket. She got up, and walked towards her bedroom. She reached her small bedroom that consisted of a bed, a bedside table, a body mirror, and a brown wooden wardrobe. Sunset opened the wardrobe and looked inside. She had some good clothing, and she knew that she needed something more; partyish. She looked for a small dress that wasn't really revealing, but still something that would surprise the Dazzlings. She found one, and took of her clothes she was currently wearing that looked more like gangster wear.
The dress she put on, was midnight blue, and it had some golden stars on her shoulders. The dress was just bellow her rump, but it could definitively be seen as revealing. She made her hair, flow flatly over her shoulders. She smiled at herself in the mirror. All she needed now, was some high heel shoes. Luckily, she had midnight blue ones also. She took them out, and dusted them of from the dust they had been collecting over the months or year she had them. She put them on, and she felt like she was taller. She could definitely see more from her hight.
She smiled. She was gonna have a good night and party with her new friends. Wait... friends? She didn't know about that, but they sure acted like friends to her, so maybe.... maybe.
The karaoke bar was quite popular, but that was something Sunset expected. She was waiting to be let in. The line she had been waiting on hadn't been that long. Just a around maybe ten people. Sunset was then let inside by a muscular guard that intimidated her a bit. Then again, they were doing their job.
Sunset was amazed by the karaoke bar. There was a large bar, and a stage where there was currently some girls singing some horrible garbage. Can't even sing properly. Sunset then felt a tapping on her shoulder, and looked to see Adagio with her sisters. They were smirking at her, but still looked surprised that she came.
"You came." Adagio said, loud enough for Sunset to hear. Sunset smirked and nodded to her. Aria and Sonata blinked. They were expecting her to make a remark but apparently they didn't. They wore the same outfits they wore for The Battle Of The Bands. Sunset just grinned at them.
"What? Can't a girl party? Besides, you invited me here so you can get your information." Sunset said, as if it was no bid deal. The Dazzlings just stared at her, and grinned. She was acting way more like them, then she did before they met her. Then again, she might not be holding back her true desires either which she perhaps had to do before in order to not be judged.
"So, I'm gonna get myself a drink, want anything?" Sunset asked, and Aria nodded.
"I'll come with you, Adagio I'll get your usual and same goes for you Sonata." Aria said, walking towards the bar with Sunset. The bartender was a mare who had white skin, sapphire blue eyes, and red main. She was wearing a traditional bartender suit, and looked up at Sunset and Aria with a smile.
"What can I get you two?" She asked, and the two Equestrians smiled.
"I'll take an Jameson whiskey. My older sister wanted the fruit drink the one that tastes like creme. And my younger sister want the raspberry gin." Aria said, making the bartender pull out glasses and pour in the drinks.
"I'll take a Scottish whiskey, you can surprise me." Sunset said, and the bartender nodded. She pulled out a fourth glass, and poured some old looking whiskey. She put it on the tray for them. She then put the bill on.
"You can place the money here when your finished." She said, and the two nodded in understanding. Aria took the tray and walked back with the tray to an table the other two sat at. Sunset sat down beside Sonata who was pointing to herself. Sunset was looking down at her whiskey, and chuckled a little. The other three looked at her curiously. She flashed them a smile.
"I didn't expect to be betrayed, become a small gangster, get a call from you, and now be at an karaoke bar. A lot of shit has happened to me today." Sunset said, and the other three stared at her wide eyes. Betrayed? 'Sunset, what on earth has been going on?'adagio thought to herself.
"Well, I should start from the beginning..." Sunset said, and started telling them everything about what had happened that day. The sleep overs she had for those two nights, the Mystable account, why she became so frustrated with every single thing she heard or saw. When she finished her tale, Sonata was openly crying, but it was silenced by the music in the bar. She was clinging on to Sunset who looked lost on what to do. Adagio and Aria looked ready to murder someone. Sure, they may have disliked Sunset, but because of what happened today, they feel different about her.
"Sunset, why were you angry at us? Or was it simply frustrations?" Aria asked, making Adagio look at her as if she was completely stupid. "What?"
"Aria, she is betrayed by her friends, obviously she will be emotional. You have anger issues yourself, you should be the one to relate to her." Adagio said, making Aria blush a little but his it quite well. Sonata was hugging Sunset for dear life, and to the older sisters surprise, Sunset looked like she enjoyed the comfort. They smiled a little. Sonata could be good for therapy.
"I'm sorry you had to go through all that! I promise you, you won't see their ugly faces again!" Sonata said, making Sunset let out a hearty chuckle. She didn't know that Sonata could be like this, but she is The friendliest siren there is. Sunset returned the hug and buried her face in her shoulder. Adagio and Aria smirked a little. They then heard quiet sobs, and lost their smirks immediately. They thought that Sunset was falling for dear old Sonata. Not that they would mind really, Sunset deserved happiness.
"There there, its okay those cowards won't hurt you now." Sonata said, making Aria drop her jaw. Sonata could be mean and even cruel when she wanted to, but she sounded flat out evil when she said that. Adagio looked proud at Sonata. Sunset continued crying into her shoulder. She then looked up at her new found friends. She smiled a little at them. They smiled back and partied a little with each other.
The night was young, and Sunset was having a great time. Sne was partying and made friends with the sirens which made her laugh inside her head. After a few hours they planned on leaving the karaoke bar together. They stood outside and talked for a little.
"Thanks for coming Sunset. I didn't actually believe you would come, but I wanted you to know that the door was always open for you." Adagio said, giving Sunset a friendly smile. Sunset smiled back a pleasant smile, and not a menacing smile.
"Well, thank you for inviting me." Sunset said, smiling at them. They smiled in return and waved at her and walked away. She waved back and started walking towards her apartment.
The walk was long and cold, but it felt amazing to Sunset. She had made three friends she least expected to make, and she had fun at karaoke bar. Celestia knows she needed that. She needed the partying. She really needed to drink the alcohol she did. She felt though, that someone was watching her during her stay at the party. She just shrugged it of as someone looking at her from a distance in a hormonal way. She had been expecting that anyways. Sunset now, felt that very same feeling of being watched. She stopped under a lamp that was shining orange light on her. There was some buildings nearby, but there was a forest-like are nearby. Sunset looked all around her, but didn't see anyone. She still felt like someone was watching her intently.
"Who's there!?" Sunset shouted out to the darkness that was surrounding her like walls trapping a mouse. She heard a cackle, and something landed in front of her. Sunset looked at the creature and only saw some grey and white shining eyes. Sunset fell on her rump and started pushing herself away from the creature who was only looking at her with interest.
"Where are you going? Your apartment is the other way." The creature said, making Sunset stare at it with disbelief. She didn't know how to respond, so she refrained from saying anything.
"Sorry that I scared you..." The creature said, in a tone that Sunset couldn't make out what it was.
"What are you doing here?" Sunset asked, making the creature look at her. He looked at her with curiosity. Sunset wondered what it was doings. Perhaps studying her. She had no idea what it was truly doing so she decided to say it was studying her.
"Me? Oh, well, I felt the hatred of some creature, so I decided to investigate. It turned out to be you. I'm also here to offer you a deal. I can help you get revenge on your ex-friends. All you need to do is accept my offer." The creature said, making Sunset look at him with suspicion.
"And what does this deal 'include' because it sounds like you are planning something." Sunset said, making the creature laugh a hearty laugh. At least Sunset hoped so...
"The only thing that really 'includes' in my offer is me sharing your body. You'll be in full control, but you will be able to transform into any creature you desire." The creature said, knowing he was tempting Sunset to good now. Sunset was lost in her thoughts and finally looked up at the creature. There was absolutely no one watching them, and the buildings looked as big and powerful as ever.
"Yes, I take your offer. My name is Sunset Shimmer." Sunset said, shaking hand with a black hoof.
The creature seemed to give her a smile. "Hello Sunset Shimmer, my name is The Pony Of Shadows." Shadow Pony said.
